Default L92 Heads with LS3 intake valves, exhaust?

I have an LS3 short block with LS6 top end, it ran great, until one of the CNC heads cracked. I have a set of L92 heads that I bought several years ago. I am seeing that I need to replace the heavy intakes with LS3 hollow valves, what about exhaust? They have to be lighter than the intakes, will the L92 exhaust valves work in a road race car? Is there any benefit to swapping for LS3 exhaust valves ?

exhaust valves are the same, only intakes are the hollows.

Correct about the intake valves and the exhaust are pretty cheap. If you want something even lighter Re sized Ls7 valves are great for around a 100 bucks each, been thinking they would make a good 2 time Layaway plan $50+$50. Pay J one week pick them up the following week sounds pretty good to me. Until they are acquired. Just left the shop and asked this same question.
